• Shipping delays  – U.S. Postal Service packages may require more time to be delivered due to COVID-19 and the Postal Service’s adoption of Expedited to Street/Afternoon Sortation (ESAS). In some cases shipping delays may extend to 1 to 4 weeks. Refunds will not be given due to USPS delays. If you wish to upgrade to UPS Ground or some other service, please call 888-233-9678 or send us your cart to request a quote.
